Hi,

When I sync'ed a couple of days ago I got this:
xxxxx ~ # emerge --with-bdeps y -DupN world

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild   R   ] x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.3-r6  VIDEO_CARDS="(-fglrx%*)"
[ebuild   R   ] media-libs/alsa-lib-1.0.19  USE="(-midi%*)"
[ebuild     U ] media-libs/libmikmod-3.1.11-r5 [3.1.11-r4]
[ebuild   R   ] media-sound/alsa-tools-1.0.19  USE="-midi*"
[ebuild   R   ] media-sound/alsa-utils-1.0.19-r2  USE="(-midi%*)"
[ebuild   R   ] media-sound/audacity-1.3.7  USE="-midi*"

Q1. Does anyone know why the ebuild for xorg-server no longer have the
fglrx flag (nvidia is present) available?

Q2. Does anyone know why midi USE flag is no longer used?

I've tried to google it, both general search and via gentoo mail list
archives. Though my google skills may not be the best...

Best regards

Peter K
